    May be of help on that one. I did quite a few Ashley runs out of Arcadia Wi. and Ecru Ms. and 35k would be on the heavy side. Most of the ones I did were 20k or a little less.

    Yeah, the Ashley loads are usually lighter than what they say, however the IKEA loads are almost always 40k lbs, and I think the board says they are 18k.
    and fyi, it drops at our Tacoma terminal yard, on the right, just as you come thru the gate.

    Yeah the IKEA loads got me the first time I didn't read the description very good and there weighed in kilograms not pounds so there about twice as heavy as you are expecting

    4k is tough.... I might get it this week, depends on what I can find on Friday. 35-3700 is easily doable, that hump just seems to be elusive. Learning when and where the high dollar loads pop up on the board and being in position to grab them is key.... Good Luck, and btw you are still not welcome out here ;)
